This is an extremely neat and well-kept cemetery. It is located behind Boxwood
Church of Christ in Bivens. Bivens is
located on LA 389, which is a good, paved, all-weather road, about 12 miles
or so south of Merryville.
There are several large oak trees in the newer section; the older section has
traditional cedar trees. Cement benches have been conveniently placed in several
locations for those needing a resting place. The atmosphere here is very relaxing
and peaceful. The cemetery is surrounded on three sides by woods of mixed trees
and the church with its parking facilities on the fourth side. In researching
Hixon Funeral Home records, we find this cemetery listed as "Franks
Cemetery" during the 1930s.
